I’ve gotta say, I’d always known the Muppet Show was hilarious - but I’d not known that it could be so, well, sexy.

Ohhh, yeah. And, bear in mind that Rita was 44 or 45 at the time that she filmed that. Wow. ---

BTW, just found a better link: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0HS2sQ6YBE](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0HS2sQ6YBE) This one includes Rita Moreno’s “interview” at the start of the program - hilarious! That’s the best offer I’ve had all week! ---
